Summary

Winnu Winnu, Chicken Dinnu. It’s a faction so bad at winning that they have a celebratory catch phrase. How did we get here? Is there a trick to all of this that makes Winnu truly viable? Or is every win just a fluke? Let’s talk about “strategy” for the faction that really really really wants Mecatol Rex and basically nothing else. Also, if you prefer three and four player games...I’m really sorry that this episode isn’t more for you. I bet you have way more fun with Winnu… 7:16 - Overview 25:30 - Early Game 52:00 - Tech 59:19 - Trade/Meta 1:04:26 - Mid-Game 1:10:44 - Late Game 1:15:40 - Root Eyrie Dynasties Errata Music provided by Ben Prunty.
